We last visited Restaurant Atelier not long after it moved from Newtown to Glebe, so a very long time ago.
As anyone who reads this blog knows, we are massive fans of Bar Mattino & think that Sebastian Tyson is one fine chef. So when he, and his equally knowledgeable wife, Sigrid, talk up a restaurant we know they are not giving us a bum steer. So on their recommendation we finally pay a return visit to Restaurant Atelier.
The restaurant resides in a cute sandstone cottage near the Parramatta Rd end of Glebe Point Rd.
Inside the restaurant is cosy & comfortable and we are seated in the front section right next to the fireplace.

Brunch & Casual Lunch - Thursday to Sunday 8am to 3pm
Orto Trading Co is another spot we have been meaning to visit for positively ages; you know how it is though....too many restaurants, too little money!
Anyway, as we near the end of our short holiday, we decide the time is right to pop in for a quiet mid-week lunch.
The restaurant has ample indoor & outdoor seating, and despite the very cute British bulldog sitting at an outdoor table, we choose to sit inside.
The room is light & airy thanks to all the glass; it is a very comfortable space with large tables sporting cute, little floral arrangements that suit the overall theme of the restaurant.
We order our food and kick back with a couple of beers.

Today finds us lunching with our two favourite girls…..H & A.
We are heading to District Dining, and as none of us have dined here before, we are all quite looking forward to the meal ahead.
We initially have a little trouble locating the restaurant, but soon spot the Mondrian inspired panel out the front.
The restaurant is larger than expected, and at this time of day still relatively empty.
Once seated, we order a bottle of 2010 Pike & Joyce ‘The Bleedings’ Rosé, and glance over the menu.

Lunch and Dinner 7 days
So now we move from the sublime to the ridiculous.
After our light, fresh & incredibly delicious lunch at JOHNANDPETER Canteen, we decide to do a complete 180 and visit The Abercrombie.
Recently refurbed, The Abercrombie sits on the corner of Broadway and Abercrombie Street.
When we arrive at around 12.30pm, the pub is still pretty much empty & we grab ourselves a cute little booth.
As mentioned previously we do have a soft spot for American diner type food, and while the Abercrombie is not strictly 'diner', it certainly is of that ilk. The Abercrombie menu has Buggles and Squeak written all over it.

On this coolish, wet, blustery Spring day, we decide to head to Eveleigh & visit JOHNANDPETER Canteen for lunch.
Having missed the Canteen in its 'pop-up' form, we are certainly glad it has become a permanent fixture at Carriageworks.
On arrival our ears are bombarded with a cacophony of screams and wails. Having been blessed with NO children, we are blissfully unaware that Carriageworks is hosting the Sydney Children's Festival.
Undeterred however, we take a seat in the almost empty Canteen.
